In order to stand out from your competitors, your sales staff should work for positive feedback from customers. However, maintaining high service standards is not enough to win customers’ loyalty and commitment. Presently, customer wish to have on-line and remote access to their favorite brands and stores. In the light of the increasing demand for Web stores, physical stores have become the limited form of retail business.
Fulfilling customers’ expectations on wide assortment and choice is another challenge for retailers.

Retail Back Office enables you to create reports and track transactions starting from the source of origin. Within a minute, you can create a detailed and complete report. You can select an appropriate report from the report list and then analyse sales performance results for a selected period based on custom criteria.
